My dad is 74 and is a climate change denier, it’s maddening. He says he doesn’t deny that it’s happening, but doesn’t think that industrialization and cars are the reason, but it’s a cycle the planet goes through every few thousand years 🤦♂️ He cites The Ice Age as proof of these long-term climate shifts and says we don’t have climate records from anything beyond like 150 or so years ago so it’s all conjecture.
Only to have them ‘question’ the data without elaborating on why it’s bad data.
I work with a Trumper who also denies climate change, he outright declined my offer to put together evidence for him regarding climate change. These people are too old to give a shit, unfortunately.

You could mention data from thousand of years ago gleaned from ice core samples, perhaps.

“My mind is made up. I don’t need evidence.”
Ahh yes. The battle cry of the lazy and ignorant.
